U Street Music Hall, DC tap ($8): Pours a golden color with a shiny white head. Aroma of fruits, Belgian yeast, and a mild amount of hops. Carbonated body adds a nice body touch to the yeast combined with Belgian hops, giving it a little crispness. A little bit on the sweet side, but not too badly. Sessionable and eminently drinkable, yet nothing innovative or particularly interesting.

330 ml bottle from LCBO. Pours a moderately hazy golden colour with decent-sized white head. Aroma is yeasty with banana, pear and citrus. Citrus really comes to the fore in the flavour, sort of lemon zest with more subtle pear and a surprisingly strong, lingering spiciness. Lively carbonation. Nice.

330ml bottle, 6.8% ABV, part of a package gift bought at Brussels Airport. Good amount of creamy, white head to a golden body that carries a slight haze. Spotty lacing to the glass. Aroma of spiced fruits. Champagne- like taste involving lemon, oranges, yeast and spices. Dusty hops to the finish. Fresh and nice (at home in Tromsř, 22.05.2011).
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Kissé homályos belsejű, aranysárga színű ale, amin egy óriási, fehér, laza szerkezetű és elég gyorsan elolvadó hab terül el. Illata malátás, édeskés, igen fűszeres, aszalt sárgabarackos, kissé mézes és kissé állatias. Íze aszalt déligyümölcsös, likőrös, korianderes, fűszeres, vaníliás, malátás és komlósan gyantás, kissé száraz és nemes élesztős. Közepesen testes és pezsgőszerűen buborékos, élő. Utóíze fűszeres és keserédes, zöld almásan fanyar és kissé száraz. Könnyen iható és kellemes belga ale.

Süßer Lebkuchengeruch, etwas nach Schokolade. Süß-herber Antrunk, ausgewogen. Sehr gewürzig und eigen werdend, z.T. im hinteren Bereich unstimmig. Gewürzig-bitter im Abgang, zu krass, daher disharmonisch. 8/8/9/9/10/8
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a hazy golden. Aroma is slightly sweet, with a bit of citrus notes. Flavor is certainly reminiscent of a wheat ale or german hefeweizen. Citrus and banana notes, with a slight bubblegum backing. Crisp finish. Definitely solid.
